One Saturday afternoon in February, 1943, a farmer in Mexico

one saturday afternoon in february, 1943, a farmer in mexico stopped working for a moment and looked across his fields of corn. suddenly he saw a thin line of white smoke curling up out of his field, about 200 feet from where he stood. as he went toward the smoke to see what it was, he heard a strange noise. the line of smoke became bigger. it looked as if some great force were pushing it up into the sky.
the farmer rushed home to get his wife. while he was urging his wife to hurry from the house, the earth shook violently. when he stood up after the earth stopped shaking, he looked across the field and saw that great flames were rising from his cornfield. a volcano was being born!
they hurried across the shaking earth to the village of particutin, which was toward their farm. they found the village was seriously destroyed and the road from the village was filled with frightened people hurrying to safety.
particutin did not become dark that night. the volcano lighted up the sky for miles around. flames rushed out of the ground. the volcano threw hot stones a thousand feet through the air. great explosion shook the earth and heavy black ashes fell from the sky, covering the roofs in mexico city, 180 miles away.
but that was not all. on the third evening a float of lava(火山岩)began to boil up from the centre of the volcano. it came over the edge in a heavy flow, 2,000 feet wide, and travelled slowly across the valley, bringing certain death to everything that could not move from its path.
